This library is a convenient implementation of an UWS which already implements all behaviors and functionalities described by the IVOA recommendation. It is designed to be as quick and easy to use as possible so that an user of UWS has not to worry with the UWS management.

In practice all that change between two UWServices is the execution task of their Jobs. The service management - included all possible requests it may receive - never changes.

That’s why this library already manages all these behaviors (described by the IVOA Recommendation). Thus all that you have to do is to implement the execution of a Job.

The UWS package developped by G. Mantelet will be included in Saada from version 1.6.
It can also be used for others java developments :
